The Biruni bridge leads to the eponymous town, 15 km northeast of Urgentch, and is named after the encyclopedist Al-Biruni (973-1050), who was born here. If you ask your driver to stop, you can visit his tomb, on the right just after crossing the bridge, a stone's throw from the ruins of Xat Kala. The body of the great Muslim scholar who, 600 years before Galileo, asserted that the earth could only be spherical, rests in the shelter of a small octagonal mausoleum.
